I spent a week in Tampa. "It's full of blacks", right away people warned me. Yet days passed and I hardly encountered any--save for the USF campus where they filled all the petty positions. "How come", I thought out loud one day. "It's because we're in New Tampa", my friend and host explained, "Go to Old Tampa and you will see your blacks". I exclaimed that I wanted to go. "No, you don't", he sez, "you will get shot and robbed off everything you carry on you". I protested that I didn't care but a lack of compelling reasons and, more importantly, a ride forced me to postpone my "exploration" travels for yet another eventual trip. Thus I didn't get to see no real American niggers again. What a pity.
